Symptoms
Anemia, also called iron-deficiency anemia, occurs when there is not enough iron in the body. Without the proper amount of this mineral, the body cannot produce adequate amounts of hemoglobin. Why does this matter? Hemoglobin is responsible for carrying tissue-nourishing oxygen from the lungs to every part of the body. Without oxygen, the body cannot function properly. A low-iron diet, heavy monthly menstrual flow, pregnancy, lead poisoning, recent blood loss or poor iron absorption by the body can all lead to anemia. Initial signs are so mild they often pass unnoticed: fatigue that is greater than usual, or slight pallor. Later on, the heart rate may grow faster, and the sufferer become winded more easily than usual.

Symptoms
Cancer occurs when cells begin growing abnormally, forming malignant tumors. These malignant tumors can appear in the breast, the bones, the throat, the brain, the stomach - actually, in almost any area of the body. But why do cells begin acting strangely in the first place? It’s believed that exposure to carcinogens can cause body cells to mutate. Common carcinogens include cigarette smoke, fatty foods, industrial chemicals, insecticides, nuclear radiation, pesticides used on food, polluted air, and ultraviolet light. While cancer symptoms vary widely depending on what part of the body is affected, general signs include blood in the urine or stool, fatigue, hoarseness, indigestion, nagging cough, sores that do not heal, thickening somewhere in the body, and unexplained weight loss.
